i. CBNER PIECE FOB BUILDINGS.

Application led June 8,

The present invention relates to improvements in corner pieces lfor buildings, and has for ,its principal object to provide structural' elements which are exceedingly sim- 5 ple, strong, durable, easy to incorporate in s the building, attractive in appearance, and otherwise Well adapted to the purpose for which it is designed. .l

With the above and numerousy other ob ljects in view as will appear as the description proceeds, the invention resides in certain novel features of construction, and in the `combination and arrangement of parts as will be hereinafter more fully .described l and claimed.

In the drawings 'i Figure 1 is an elevation of one embodiment of the4 invention, and

Figure 2 is an elevation of another embodiment of the invention..

Referring to the drawing in detail, it will be seen that the two embodiments consist of two end receiving members for the Wallsat a corner of a building, these members being indicated by the letters A. Each member A consists of a relatively short leg 5 and a relatively long leg 6. These legs 5 and 6 are disposed at right angles to each other. In Figure 1, the shorterlegs 5 are provided with outwardly extending right angularly disposed extensions 9 which are folded upon themselves and connected by the-straight segment 10, thereby forming a triangular cornerA piece with lips. In Figure 2, the

legs 5 have outwardly extending rectangularly disposed extensions 13, the ends of which are connected by the arcuate -seg ment 14.

With this'device it is possible to make a very strong and durable corner with very 40 little effort of a laborious nature so that the installation may vbe cheaply accomplished.

'The pieces should be made from single sheets of galvanized iron or the like. It is thought that the construction, utility, and advantages of the invention ,will be .clearly understood Without a more detailed description thereof. It is apparent that numerous changes in the details of construction, and in the combination and ar- 5 rangement of parts may be resorted to Without departing from the spirit or scope of the invention as hereinafter claimed or sacrificing any of its-advantages.

Having thus ldescribed the invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is :f-

A device of the class described including a pair of wall end receiving members, each, member comprising a pair of right anguu" llarly disposed legs, one leg being larger' than the other of'each member, the long leg of one member being substantially alined with the short leg of the other member. the short legs of the members being right angularly disposed to each other and the long legs if the members being right an ularly disposed to each other, and a mem er including a body7 portion having its ends bent over upon itself and integrally merging into 'bc terminals of the short legs for connecting said first mentioned members together. In testimony whereof I aix my signature.
